Keith Urban's ' 'Til Summer Comes Around' music video revolves around a brief fling between a guy and a girl who meet at a theme park.


Keith Urban has unveiled a music video supporting his single " 'Til Summer Comes Around". The video was filmed in southern California in November 2009, exposing the summer warmth of the meadow with a theme park featured in the distance. A couple is seen enjoying each other's company in the open place.

" 'Til Summer Comes Around" is one of the singles appearing in Keith Urban's fifth studio album "Defying Gravity". Written by Keith and Monty Powell, the track peaked at No. 14 on Billboard Country Songs chart.

"I had this idea about a theme park," Keith said when explaining about inspiration behind the song. "For me, there's something fascinating and deeply sad about theme parks in the wintertime when they're shut down. I loved that metaphor."

"So I said to Monty that I wanted to write about a guy who meets a girl at a theme park. They have this brief fling and she says she'll be back, so every year he's still there waiting. 'Longing' is such a powerful feeling, and if you're going to write about love, that's a powerful way to get at it."
